The other night I needed a dish to take to a backyard grill out and this one was just what I needed. It was easy to transport because it is in a crock pot and super easy to make. This recipe was given to me by my Aunt in 1996 and I have been making it ever since. It reminds me of those chili con queso dips you get at the tex-mex restaurants like Carlos O’Kelly’s. Use it as a side dish, a snack, or a meal in itself! So, let’s get started making some delicious dip.The ingredients you need are: one pound ground beef, 2 lb. pound box of Velveeta cheese, 1 (15 oz) can hormel chili or I used some frozen chili from my Old Fashioned Chili recipe that I had, 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans, and 1 (16 ounce) jar of mild Pace Picante sauce.

Cut your cheese into cubes and put into the crock pot.

Add the mild Pace Picante sauce, refried beans, and chili.

Now add your browned hamburger.

Heat in crock pot on high until the cheese melts stirring occasionally. Now you are ready to enjoy this dip with your friends.
